Search for the Cam bag continues....
Tuesday, November 09, 2010I attribute my cyber window shopping and resurrection of my camera bag hunting to 2 people, Kabbie and Sasha. I still haven’t found THE bag though that doesn’t stop me from browsing. Haha I did see some that some bags that other people might like and some that I will never buy because they’re astronomically beyond my budget (these bags I’ve compiled to be part of a series of posts.). It’s free to gawk at them though.
The Criteria:
1. Must fit my camera and my essentials for travelling.
2. I hope it doesn’t look like a typical camera bag.
3. Price. Bonus points for weather proof-ness or at least can take on water/rain. I don’t even think about weight management anymore because will all my crap, it will automatically be heavy. HahaCamera Biggie P695
As of now, this is the nearest contender IF the soon-to-be-released designs are drool worthy. It scores well in numbers 1 and especially 3 but rather low in number 2. It gets additional points for being locally made but this bag STILL looks like a camera bag. Camera Slingy P395
I’ll never buy this one because I have too much stuff in my bag. Haha It simply won’t fit here. For those who pack minimally, this is a good bag that scores high in numbers 2 and 3.Camera Purse P350
Same comment as Camera Slingy. Minus points for the bag not having dividers; I’m OC – I don’t like my electronics scratching next to each other.Walkabout Tote Bag $98 (Approximately P4,312)
I saw this bag in the NatGeo store in Singapore last year. I drooled over the different types of bags the store I had. At that time I thought spending this much for a camera bag was way tooooo much. However compared to the other ones I’ve seen, this may seem not that bad.Missy $94 (Approximately P4,136)
This little seems like the most affordable one I’ve seen in the poses-as-a-handbag-but-is-a-camera-bag department. I’ll be posting more of those bags (which gave me a drool worthy heart attack) in the next couple of days. =)
